LimX Dynamics officially announces the release of LimX COSA (Cognitive OS of Agents), the first-of-its-kind physical-world-native Agentic OS. By deeply integrating high-level cognition with whole-body motion control, COSA enables robots to have a "neural system", with both the ability to perceive and move, to "think while working" in real-world environments. Powered by COSA, LimX Dynamics' full-sized humanoid robot Oli has become the first humanoid agent to possess both advanced loco-manipulation and high-level cognition.

COSA: The agentic operating system that aligns thinking with action in the real world

As the crucial link between robots and the physical world, LimX COSA is designed as an Agentic OS, managing all models, skills, memory, and even emotions built into the robot, coupling high-level cognitive planning with low-latency motion control loops. This systematic integration allows humanoid robots to think proactively and work autonomously.

COSA is built on a three-layer hierarchy that parallels the expanding capabilities of Oli

· Low level: A robust whole-body control foundation model, providing stable balance and motion.

· Mid level: Coupling high-level cognitive planning with low-latency motion control loop, enabling skills such as navigation, obstacle avoidance, pick-and-place, and stair climbing.

· High level: Autonomous cognition and decision-making focusing on interaction, memory, and reasoning.

LimX Dynamics' Oli Demonstrates Advanced Loco-Manipulation

If a robot is compared to a human, COSA is its neural system. Rather than following fixed commands, it enables the robot to contextually engage with the physical world, interpreting intent, decomposing tasks, and refining actions in real time. COSA transforms a programmed machine into an embodied agent capable of adaptive perception, autonomous cognition, and continuous learning through physical interaction.

Powered by COSA, Oli Becomes the First Humanoid Agent to Seamlessly Integrate Motion Control with High-Level Cognition

Three core capabilities:

1. High-Level Cognition and Reasoning

This allows Oli to move beyond preset code to "think while acting," using natural language understanding and intent recognition to autonomously decompose long-horizon tasks and adjust priorities in dynamic environments.

2. Semantic Memory and Proactive Perception

By transitioning from being passive to poactive in action, Oli constructs a persistent "worldview" across time and modalities, allowing it to recognize people, recall interaction histories, and maintain contextual awareness.

3. Real-Time Whole-Body Loco-Manipulation

As the culmination of LimX Dynamics' full-stack technology, COSA seamlessly couples high-level intelligence with LimX' long-standing expertise in motion control, ensuring that cognitive intent an be directly realized through stable action, for example, challenging terrains like long stairs.

COSA is a physical-world-native OS. Its cognition, decision-making, and orchestration mechanisms do not operate in an abstract computational environment but are grounded in the robot’s embodiment and the physical world. LimX Dynamics builds this from the ground up, ensuring COSA is not merely a technical showcase, but a system engineered for genuine deployment. Here, we introduce a first-of-its-kind OS, turning humanoid robots into intelligent agents capable of mastering the physical world.
